Review of A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985) by Movieznp — 07 Mar 2019

Tell me, people! Please! Tell me! Tell me that this movie was a made for TV parody of A Nightmare on Elm Street which took itself too seriously, which accidentally got a mainstream release. Please!!

Bad : Seriously, what the f**k was this bulls**t? Does it even know what are the rules of this fictional universe? I hated the ending of the first movie for two reasons - producers sticking their f**king nose in the film and forceful franchising. You know why? Because we get films full of **** like this. To this date, I have not been able to figure out what the f**k was going on in this film. As a teen, I had a stupid fan fiction where Freddy is not a dream demon, but a simple ghost possessing people, just like in this film. My idea was very ridiculous, but it was way better than this film. You know what made the first one so creepy and disturbing, yet enjoyable? It was the feeling of presence of the entity named Freddy Krueger rather than his actual on screen presence. You may put any spin on the ending of the first film as per your wish, but absolutely none of them would ever be able to explain this bulls**t. How can Freddy possess people and do all the s**t that other generic ghosts do? Why? It just takes the stupid idea or belief of "anything can happen in a horror movie, because it is a horror movie" too seriously. Not only it isn't loyal to the first film, it is totally weird. Freddy appears during a pool party and literally kills people in the real world. He, then, vanishes as a sparkle of fire or something like that. He is Krueger, alright? He can torment people, whom he wishes to kill, in their dreams and gets the job done. Why would he need to possess anyone even if he could? Alright, he was being an a**h*le. But why the f**k he would he want to let people know that he really exists, or he did it? These are some of the weirdest, naive and pathetic plot holes this movie has. And believe me, there are many others. And, it may be just me, but there is a prominence of homosexuality in this film. A lot of it. Jesse dances like a lunatic and closes the drawer with his a$$ which looks ridiculously gay. The murder of Jesse's coach was so much the same. When Jesse finds out that Freddy is gonna kill his girl, he goes to Grady, Grady gives a gay dialogue. That made me think that the movie ends with Freddy leaving Jesse's body after Lisa kisses him, because Jesse was able to accept his heterosexuality. That's just completely insane and bizarre. I would've accepted this **** if it had no tie ups with the first one. But, it has a diary written by Nancy which works as a plot device. As ridiculous as it may sound, it's also totally nonsensical. Nancy was constantly trying to fight Freddy in the first film, she was watching TV and listening to music and stuffs like that. Okay, maybe, just maybe, she was writing a diary to keep herself awake. You think she wrote down literally everything that would serve as a convenience for this film? What the f**k movie? There are no enjoyable dynamic between Jesse and Grady or between Jesse and Lisa. This movie is a blant and stupid teenage fan fiction with Freddy Krueger jinxed in it. The movie shows more of what an apparently high teen does when he is alone more than a horror film, and I just mean horror films in general. It has pool party, dancing when you're alone, cheesy and funny as **** sequences that were supposed to be terrifying, etc. At least, as a consolation, it could've had some disturbing kills, but it is underwhelming in that part too. It is an unintentional insult to gay community. It doesn't even feel like a bad horror film. It's a teenage romance with some gruesome images. Unlike in the first one, it has no feeling of presence of Freddy Krueger when it is going on. Apart from this, the coach is a cringe character. The bird annihilation scene was a cringe scene. This film completely subdues Freddy and the original film. The slapstick part was worth a sarcastic laugh. It was a cashgrab. Nothing else. .

Conclusion : This movie is simply a big gigantic and complex network of sewage lines with all kinds of s**t in it. .
